    All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
    I like watchin the puddles gather rain
    And all I can do is just pour some tea for two
    and speak my point of view
    But its not sane..
    I just want some one to say to me
    Ill always be there when you wake
    Ya know Id like to keep my cheeks dry today
    So stay with me and Ill have it made
    And I dont understand why I sleep all day
    And I start to complain that theres no rain
    And all I can do is read a book to stay awake
    And it rips my life away but its a great escape..

    That looks more like admitting defeat. You could unban me and save the spam for IRC. And try to have a real argument too.

    I'll add in to where I left off. It isn't the two flaws that are stoping me from getting the OS and I don't have much against Microsoft, hell I've been using their OS so I've got nothing to say. I know no coding so I am not going to bash them acting like I can do better. So far the only things stopping me are the software limitations, when that gets fixed and hopefully some few flaws as well, then I'll willingly update.

    Well you posted the link and then said "good thing I didn't dl the sp2 pack," so it was easy to make the assumption that that article was the reason why you weren't getting SP2

    Let's say I know this guy who has a burned copy of WindowsXP and a FCKGW serial. Would he be able to run SP2? I mean, I've heard stories man. Reeeal bad stories
    I heard SP 1 XP could screw up a pc with an illegal XP really badly.

    I own Home Edition, but switched over to an illegal Professional with a FCKGW serial.

    Had to use a program to change the key to access Windows Update, but the SPs haven't caused any problems. (So far.)

    Does SP2 allow you uninstall it like most of the other updates?

    Yes, in the "Add/Remove Programs" in the Control Panel.

    Alright then. I know some of their updates don't allow you to normally uninstall them. I may give it a go then.

    These flaws are needed, Linux wouldn't look so great if Windows was flawless.

    I'll say it again: Linux isn't flawless

    Less flawed is perhaps a given, flawless though is a total myth.

    HEY! FCKGW YOU!
    Ohohoho! That joke never gets old. I'll admit, it's not that funny either.

    No, that was pretty good, actually.
